Great stop for pastry / bread! - Key lime pie slice: real lime zest, not artificial at all. Delicious crust as well! - Chocolate chip cookie: got this at the marshall store and it was the perfect texture, crispy edge but soft middle. Flaky salt on top to complete it. - Seeded bread: got this at hog island and it was perfect, fluffy with black sesame sprinkled throughout read more

This was one of the best bakeries I have ever been to, and I have been to a few of the spots in Paris. This rivals all of them. Look, if you just ate are are stuffed, you still need to stock up on some road trip snacks for later. And their coffee is exceptional. I am salivating just thinking about their baked goods. Small boutique bakery that meets and exceeds any expectations. Worth EVERY calorie. Prices are reasonable. Do yourself a favor, stop by and get some top tiered baked goods. You can thank me later.. read more

Valentine's Day at Route One Bakery in Tomales was perfect. I had a rich mocha and a homemade apple pie with a flaky crust. My partner got a savory side of meatballs and an amazing turtle cheesecake--creamy, decadent, with caramel and chocolate done right. Cozy vibe, great food, we'll be back. Staff was friendly, down-to-earth, and helpful without being overbearing. We loved it so much we went back the next day for pizza, roast beef sandwich, and more pastries!!! read more

Do not venture to West Marin without a stop at Route One Bakery & Kitchen! My daughter and I visited on a summer weekday from Inverness. She loved the unique hot chocolate croissant (think smores) and I was a big fan of the banana bread. We played in a nearby playground after our pastries and then came back to grab pizza to take home for lunch. Their focaccia pizza is otherworldly! If you're a mushroom lover, definitely don't miss that one! I also enjoyed their Caesar salad. We came back on Saturday before heading home to get more pizza and some sourdough bread. My daughter asked for toast every day for breakfast for as long as the bread lasted. Route One Bakery & Kitchen is a very special bakery; don't miss it! read more

WOW FACTOR? Great location. Attractive bakery. HAVE AGAIN: Pecan roll was excellent. Focaccia with potatoes and bacon was very good. Ham and cheese sandwich was good. NOT HAVE AGAIN: Did not care for the Millionare bar - to much caramel and not enough chocolate. read more

We showed up later in the day. Right before they closed. The staff were awesome, polite and helpful. Most things were sold out but we found plenty of goodies to snack on after a day at the beach. Highly recommend the pizza was so good! And the Mexican hot chocolate croissant was amazing! The best chocolate croissant I've had. Topped with a toasted mallow cream. They closed while we were there so the staff offered us free sourdough loafs to wish we gladly excepted. We worked through the loaf over the next few days. For someone who geeked out on sourdough making during Covid and now has a true appreciation for quality sourdough. I can say this place makes a great loaf with a perfect crumb! Highly recommend this place and look forward to going back! read more

Best sourdough I've ever had; get the seed bread. Amazing flaky raspberry hand pie. Dense coffee cake. Delicious ham & cheese croissant.

I truly hesitate to write this review and call to your attention one of the BEST bakeries you will ever visit. The more you know the more likely you will visit making it more likely I am going to have to wait in a long line..... So what can you expect when you stop here? Melt in your mouth pastries, amazing focaccia, sourdough bread, pizza (we didn't try it this time), desserts, coffee and more. Croissants that are flaky, light, buttery, some savory some with chocolate, almond, big enough to share but you will want it all to yourself. The Cinnamon roll was like nothing I have had before (I am pretty sure they only make them on Sat/Sun), fluffy, sweet, with perfect frosting and just the right amount of cinnamon.....a must try. We bought a loaf of Sourdough bread to take home, it was oh so good!!!!! Service was excellent, yes, this is not a budget place, but trust me worth every penny (and more). We went early on a Sunday in Feb., wasn't too busy (about six others were there when we were there), but I have heard that during the summer this place can have very long waits (and it is literally in the middle of no where). Nice outdoor area, inside is basically just a place to order. Take a trip up to Pt. Reyes, stop here on the way to grab some goodies to eat when you get to Drakes Bay, and make sure you have extra to take back home with you. read more

This place is awesome! Not only are the baked goods, salads and pizza great, the staff is also wonderful. Recommend this bakery highly.

The bread here is incredible. I got their sourdough round with olives and it was airy and moist, but not too hole-y such that it's hard to put a spread on it. I didn't love the hint of black pepper in the olive bread, so I'd probably get a regular sourdough round next time. I was most excited about the Roman-style pizza, but this ended up being underwhelming for me. I found the crust too crispy and there was too much bread relative to toppings. The version here feels more like a hybrid between American style and Roman style pizza - a bit heavier on the melted cheese with a noticeable crust. If you're not feeling pizza, the chicken salad sandwich is a solid bet. Sweets wise, the oatmeal cranberry cookie was really good, soft and not too sweet, and my boyfriend was a fan of the strawberry rhubarb pie. read more

Almond Croissant & a Morning Bun... plus a round of Cheddar/Jalapeno Sourdough. So delicious. *Hadn't visited in awhile & was pleased to see they've updated the place and now have service inside the building. Young man at the counter was very helpful and explained several items in the case I was unfamiliar with. Great small-town, artisan created vibe & product(s). read more

Stopped here on my way for a weekend trip in NorCal and I continue to think about the pizza here! Their specialty is definitely bread, and I can attest that their pizza, sourdough, and pastries are the best you'll ever taste! Not to mention their mocha coffee with fresh whipped cream and orange zest is to die for! read more

Stopped her on our way to Point Reyes. The lady helping us was very kind and helpful, kindly describing the quiche and explaining their socials. We ordered the quiche with trumpet mushrooms and turkey sandwich on sourdough. Both were very good; definitely worth the stop! read more

Stopped by after coming back from a walk on the beach. I got a loaf of focaccia and a persimmon chocolate scone. Both were really good! I took the focaccia home and crisped it up in the oven and the crust on the bottom was divine. The onions on top were rich and caramely and I enjoyed the texture and flavor the seeds and zucchini gave. The persimmon scone was good as well! I wish the persimmon flavor was a little stronger, but it is a pretty mellow fruit after all. Would stop by again if in the area and craving some bread. read more

Delicious beautiful flaky pastry. Lovely latte. The quiche of the day was sun dried tomato, potato, and cheddar, and it was perfect. Highly recommend. Not a lot of seating inside, but charming outside counter and stool style seats. read more

I first tried this bakery when dining at the Marshall store. Finally had a chance to stop by and snagged a sourdough and Kouignn amann. Both yummy. I'd love to try the other things from the menu next time. read more

So so worth the stop. Pizza, pastries, cookies all to die for. Worth the drive out off the beaten path.

Great service. Great food (focaccia and flat white). Great location. What more could you want?!

I remember when this place opened up, we were living there to tell you the least. This is the best brick oven baked bread you will ever have very classy atmosphere. Everyone can go and enjoy to get their bread service and people are incredible and friendly and a joy to deal with Love everyone that works there. They are just awesome. Well what hard work they do for such incredible delicious bread you will ever have in your entire life hands down. read more

A MUST stop while driving/cycling along CA1. A few years ago, my husband and I stumbled across this place while in the area and decided to try their kouign amann. It was our first one and we were hooked on the flaky buttery layers with caramel crust and bright fruity filling. Then the pandemic happened and we hunted all over for more of them in our local area. Despite having found really good ones, we could never get route 1 bakery out of our minds and wondered if it was just the first time magic or if that particular pastry was truly the "queen among" all the others. We have since been back and I can confirm that this is the best kouign amann I've ever had. I will gladly drive 1-2 hours on any given weekend to satisfy my pastry craving. Their other baked good selection and coffee is also great, but the real star is their kouign amann. read more

Have been going here for years but on our recent visit we saw a huge increase in the price of all items. Also the pizza slices have gotten much smaller. An order of meatballs that used to be $8 is now $15. For three meatballs ! They had a huge salads in the past but now they are tiny. They recently expanded into the space next door but it was much better & more reasonable when they were just on the corner. read more

The coffee here was great! Unfortunately the line/order area is very unorganized/small and there was a mass amount of bees, flies and other bugs EVERYWHERE. There isn't any indoor seating so I'm not sure if this is typical but having to swat bugs away the entire time waiting to order and eating was not ideal. read more

Magical sourdough sold hot, and the focaccia is out of this world! We dropped in two mornings in a row for breakfast treats. If they offer the bacon egg and cheese English muffin, get it and thank me later. They have a quick walk up window which we loved. A must for any trip to the coastal stays such as Dillon beach! read more

We been driving by this place for a long time always thought about stopping never did till our neighbors bought some beard home and gave us half . So you know I had y to ask where you get this great bread this is it the regular round sour dough to die for best I ever had you ever up there it's a must try place . We had a cup of Americano and a scone raspberry killer nice corner stop before the ocean . Don't forget the plain round sour dough its a must have and yes we did come home and cut half for our neighbors read more

As I was looking for a place for lunch on our way home from an overnight trip to Bodega Bay, I found this place. The hubby really loves pizza, and they seem to be known for their pizza, so I thought we'd stop here. It's about half an hour south of Bodega Bay on Hwy 1. We got there a little before 11 am, so we waited a few minutes to order. Thankfully it wasn't too cold as they don't have an indoor dining area. They have some barrels set up on the sidewalk with stools for sitting. We ordered a Pepperoni and a Jabroni which has mozzarella, aged provolone, veal and pork sausage and spiced broccoli rabe. Each was $11. Not sure why people are complaining about the value of the pizza. The pizzas were a good size and $11 is a good price. I make pizza at home and I usually cold ferment the dough for 2-3 days, so it takes time and patience. You don't have to go through all that for $11. Loved the dough. It was light, airy and the toppings and sauce were just perfect. I would highly recommend stopping by here or taking a slight detour. So worth it. I was just sad that I didn't get to try their croissants and other pastries. We were too late for them. Even though we came on a Monday morning, they were sold out. Glad I got to try the pizza though. Next time we're in the area, you bet we're stopping by here. And if you want to walk off some of the calories, Dillon Beach is a less than a 10 minute drive. read more

I am so in love with this place. I've been coming here for years and fall more and more in love each time. I so badly want to work here but the drive would kill me. I'll settle for a monthly visit!

A wonderful stop if you are going to or from Tomolas or in the area. Amazing breads freshly baked, cookies that looked and smelled divine, lots of other tempting pastries and freshly made treats. The coffee drinks were very popular, and the selection of teas made me very pleased. So happy to have an organic, herbal, yummy tea selection. Great, friendly service. Outside seating and street parking. read more

Loved how close we stayed to this delicious bakery, as we were at least twice despite having a kitchen and plenty of groceries to cook our own breakfasts! But the fresh pastries and loaves of bread were just too tempting. As for the coffee, it definitely hit the spot! Service was quick and friendly. Highly recommend stopping here if you're in town. Oh yeah, and their pies are to literally die for!! read more

I went on a Monday morning at around 9:30 and bought a seeded sourdough round and it was absolute delicious and very expensive $11. I also got a latte which was very good too. They had a food truck out front. Despite the price of bread I will still buy there, just not two loaves as I normally would. read more

Stopped by here after picking up some oysters at tomales bay. The pizza was delicious but didn't realize one slice could feed 2 people. We definitely over ordered. The espresso chip bread pudding was good in flavor but just a tad bit on the dry side. Carrot cake was yummy. Nice place to check out on the way to the beach. read more

I love the way this little corner café restaurant is set up! Everything is really blocked off from the public except it was incredibly windy! Their flatbread pizzas looked scrumptious!!

Well, waited all week to order a whole pizza because it's the only place close to DB that does it and wanted to treat the fam. Called during the week because their website made it look like they do it everyday. They said no only weekends. So I call Saturday and guess what, they're not making pizza. Lady on the phone made it sound like this happens often. This is 1 of 2 places to eat out here and the menu is just so inconsistent so I don't bother anymore. Foods alright if you can get it but never much left if you go after 10am. read more
